"I've created a chess program that mimics human play" said the computer programmer.  "So it plays at GM level then?" asks the advising professor.

A Russian friend of mine had been a prisoner in a Russian gulag back in 1972. He said all the prisoners were listening to the world championship match every day over a radio. One day when the match was all tied up the guards discovered the radio and took it from the prisoners so they could listen.
After about 2 weeks of not knowing what had happened in the Fischer Spassky match, a new prisoner arrived. Everyone immediately asked him what happened in the World Chess Championship Match and he said. " I lost."

Two chess players are playing a correspondence game. White lives at the South Pole, and Black lives at the North Pole. The postal service is rather slow and play proceeds at the rate of one move per year.  After 22 years of play, white makes a daring queen sacrifice, the consequences of which are by no means clear. A year later, as he sees the postman returning, he is very excited. He thinks "Will black take my queen ?", "Is the sacrifice sound ?".

He tears open the reply and sees "Jadoube".

Jadoube...?

It's French for "I adjust", and it's what chess players are supposed to say should they ever need to touch any of the pieces to re-center them in their square, though knowing that doesn't make the joke any clearer, to be honest.
Nachos
Ohhhh I get it... those French!

Basically, the one player took a year to say "I adjust", but since they are playing postal chess, this is absurdly unnecessary

One unforgettable night it was my extreme pleasure to have dinner with Garry Kasparov.

The only problem we encountered was that the restaurant used checkered tableclothes..................It took 2 hours for him to pass the salt!!!!

Capablanca was waiting in a train station in New York one day, with his coffee, danish, newspaper and chess set, when a man approached him. Gesturing at the chess set, he asked if Capablanca cared for a game. Always delighted to play, Capablanca immediately set up the board, then removed his queen from the board, to even up the game. Annoyed, the man blurted out, "Why did you do that? You don't know me, I might beat you!" Unruffled, Capablanca replied, "Sir, if you could beat me, I would know you."

Two fellows are sitting out the front of a hotel, playing a series of blitz matches for $5 a game plus $50 to the first to win 6 games. After 10 games, the match is tied at 5-5 and in the last match it is down to the final minutes, and one player has a mate in four to be played. A funeral procession then comes down the street and the fellow in the winning position stands up, takes off his hat, and stands respectfully head bowed while it passes.

After it passes, he sits back down, sees that his time has run out and proceeds to hand over the $50 to his opponent. This fellow is quite taken aback and protests that he cannot take the money seeing as he only won because of the most respectful gesture of his opponent.

The man says, "Think nothing of it. It was the least I could do. We were married for 15 years!"
